What characteristics do you use to define musical quality?


Like I said, I'm looking for good melodies. (In the case of rap that would mean a good flow but instrumentals matter, too.)

Lemme give some examples of good vs boring melodies in rap and metal so you can get a better idea of what I mean.

Good rap song:

So lyrics won't be counting towards quality. Just sound. For example, even if I didn't know English, I'd still find this song appealing because of the interesting flow and the instrumental is nuanced like that of a good song.

This one sounds just like he's talking. He may rely on lyrics for appeal but musically it's not good.

Good metal song:

The instrumentation in this is super catchy.

Bad metal song (not like these are hard to find lol):

Dragonland - Calling My Name

This one is just kinda all over the place.
